Frontline is both a personal story and a video diary of life on the frontline, revealing a very different, unseen aspect of war. It is a palette of states, a prolonged look at the world around us, through a camera that is both a soldier's eye and a documentary filmmaker's eye. It's a poetic documentary based on weeks of shooting from the cold early days of Spring to the Summer of 2022, while Alisa’s unit holds its position. This intimate film is an insight into a very specific world of a frontline seen from a unique female perspective.
